You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You want to end up with gallons, so, in words:
( quarts / bucket ) x ( gallons / quart ) x ( buckets ) =
( quarts / quarts ) x ( buckets / buckets ) x ( gallons )
So, you end up with gallons
+%28+5%2F1+%29%2A%28+1%2F4+%29%2A35+=+43.75+
The gathered 43.75 gallons of sap
